<p>You may have heard of Independence Day, but not Energy Dependence Day<\/b>.
This is the day of the year on which the EU becomes entirely dependent on foreign imports for its energy<\/b>. <\/p>\n

EuroACE<\/b>, the European Alliance of Companies for Energy Efficiency in Buildings, has highlighted<\/b> that the EU imports more and more of its primary energy every year.<\/p>\n

Fossil fuel imports leapt from 43% of Europe\u2019s energy use in 1995 to 54% in 2011, largely due to increased demand from buildings at a time when domestic energy production had been falling fast<\/b>.
The corresponding dates on which Europe ran out of home-grown energy surged forward from 26 July in 1995 to 18 June in 2011, this equates to an extra 38 days of energy dependence<\/b>. <\/p>\n

The landmark report of the Fraunhofer Institute published last October, showed that the 40% efficiency target would slash greenhouse gas emissions by more than 50% and increase the share of renewables in Europe\u2019s energy mix to 35%. Means, that a target of improving energy efficiency by 40%<\/b> would push back \u2018Dependence Day\u2019 until 26 October \u2013 and cut energy imports by 80%<\/b> .
